  • Howell, Nicholas (University of Oregon, 2017-09-06)
    This thesis introduces two notions of motive associated to a log scheme. We introduce a category of log motives à la Voevodsky, and prove that the embedding of Voevodsky motives is an equivalence, in particular proving ...
  • Xu, Tianyuan (University of Oregon, 2017-09-06)
    Let (W, S) be an arbitrary Coxeter system, and let J be the asymptotic Hecke algebra associated to (W, S) via Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials by Lusztig. We study a subalgebra J_C of J corresponding to the subregular cell C ...
  • Kazaras, Demetre (University of Oregon, 2017-09-06)
    This thesis presents two main results on analytic and topological aspects of scalar curvature. The first is a gluing theorem for scalar-flat manifolds with vanishing mean curvature on the boundary. Our methods involve tools ...
  • Kutler, Max (University of Oregon, 2017-09-06)
    The hypertoric variety M_A defined by an arrangement A of affine hyperplanes admits a natural tropicalization, induced by its embedding in a Lawrence toric variety. In this thesis, we explicitly describe the polyhedral ...
  • Reid, Benjamin (University of Oregon, 2017-09-06)
    Working at the prime p = 3, we construct a stably finite spectrum, Z, with a v_2^1 self map f. Further, both Ext_A(H*(Z),Z_3) and Ext_A(H*(Z),H*(Z)) have a vanishing line of slope 1/16 in (t-s,s) coordinates, and the map ...
  • Schopieray, Andrew (University of Oregon, 2017-09-06)
    For each finite dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and positive integer $k$ there exists a modular tensor category $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{g},k)$ consisting of highest weight integrable $\hat{\mathfrak{g}}$-modules of ...
  • Lim, Bronson (University of Oregon, 2017-09-06)
    We construct a semi-orthogonal decomposition for the equivariant derived category of a hypersurface associated to the sum of two potentials. More specifically, if $f,g$ are two homogeneous poynomials of degree $d$ defining ...
  • Dyer, Ben (University of Oregon, 2018-04-10)
    We begin by reviewing the theory of NC-schemes and NC-smoothness, as introduced by Kapranov in \cite{Kapranov} and developed further by Polishchuk and Tu in \cite{PT}. For a smooth algebraic variety $X$ with a ...
  • Merrill, Leanne (University of Oregon, 2018-04-10)
    The Periodicity theorem of Hopkins and Smith tells us that any finite spectrum supports a $v_n$-map for some $n$. We are interested in finding finite $2$-local spectra that both support a $v_2$-map with a low power of ...
  • May, Clover (University of Oregon, 2018-09-06)
    Let C2 be the cyclic group of order two. We present a structure theorem for the RO(C2)-graded Bredon cohomology of C2-spaces using coefficients in the constant Mackey functor F2. We show that, as a module over the cohomology ...
  • Hogle, Eric (University of Oregon, 2018-09-06)
    We compute the RO(C2)-graded Bredon cohomology of certain families of real and complex C2-equivariant Grassmannians.
  • Hsu, Catherine (University of Oregon, 2018-09-06)
    In his seminal work on modular curves and the Eisenstein ideal, Mazur studied the existence of congruences between certain Eisenstein series and newforms, proving that Eisenstein ideals associated to weight 2 cusp forms ...
  • Layne, Adam (University of Oregon, 2018-09-06)
    We prove a nonpolarized analogue of the asymptotic characterization of T<sup>2</sup>-symmetric Einstein flow solutions completed recently by LeFloch and Smulevici. We impose a far weaker condition, but obtain identical ...
  • Schmidt, Karl (University of Oregon, 2018-09-06)
    The present dissertation consists of four interconnected projects. In the first, we introduce and study what we call factorizable module algebras. These are $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$-module algebras $A$ which factor, potentially ...
  • Armstrong, Gavin (University of Oregon, 2018-09-06)
    We give asymptotics near the boundary for the distribution of the first exit time of the isotropic alpha-stable Levy process on bounded Lipschitz sets in real euclidean space. These asymptotics bear some relation to the ...
  • Gedeon, Katie (University of Oregon, 2018-10-31)
    The Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial of a matroid M, denoted P_M( t ), was recently defined by Elias, Proudfoot, and Wakefield. These polynomials are analogous to the classical Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials associated with Coxeter ...
  • Stephens, Andrew (University of Oregon, 2019-04-30)
    We place a differential on $\dot\UC_{\mathfrak{sl}_3}^+$ and show that $\dot\UC_{\mathfrak{sl}_3}^+$ is Fc-filtered. This gives a categorification of the positive half of quantum $\sl_3$ at a prime root of unity.
  • Bhattacharya, Arunima (University of Oregon, 2019-09-18)
    In this thesis, we prove regularity theory for nonlinear fourth order and second order elliptic equations. First, we show that for a certain class of fourth order equations in the double divergence form, where the nonlinearity ...
  • Frei, Sarah (University of Oregon, 2019-09-18)
    We consider two K3 surfaces defined over an arbitrary field, together with a smooth proper moduli space of stable sheaves on each. When the moduli spaces have the same dimension, we prove that if the etale cohomology groups ...
  • Raies, Daniel (University of Oregon, 2019-09-18)
    Mackey functors over the group Z/2 are useful in the study of Z/2-equivariant cohomology. In this dissertation we establish results which are useful for homological algebra computations for certain Mackey rings over Z/2. ...
